Bride held at Container checkpoint

Israeli soldiers detained a Palestinian wedding procession at Al-Containerer checkpoint, east of Bethlehem, as they passed through the checkpoint. They checked their ID cards and blocked the convoy for more than an hour.

Activists said the soldiers deliberately delayed the wedding procession, despite the participants´ demands that the procedures should be speeded up because the bride should arrive at the venue on time because all the guests were waiting, but all these claims did not work.
